command-line emacs tops out at 16384?

command-line emacs tops out at 16384?

[Sanford Selznick]

I've created a file "/tmp/test" that contains 20000 characters.  If I 
execute the following command on it from a console only the first 16384 
characters are input.

Why is this?

This is supposed to execute c-style wrapping on /tmp/test, and works 
great for file lengths < 16384.

emacs -batch -eval '(find-file "/tmp/test")' -eval '(c-mode)' -eval 
'(indent-region (point-min) (point-max) nil)' -eval '(save-buffer)' 
-eval '(kill-buffer (current-buffer))'

Thank you,
  Sanford

I can't answer your question, but just want to point out that can be

simplified:

emacs --batch \
       "/tmp/test" \
       -f c-mode \
       --eval '(indent-region (point-min) (point-max) nil)' \
       -f save-buffer

Kevin,  I haven't been following here but this caught my attention as
  a potentially usefull piece of command line syntax.  Not sure what
  the application here was supposed to be.   Can it be aimed at an
  existing file that is unformatted and the end result will be that
  it is formatted and saved?

  If so, how might that be made to handle a lisp file?

I tried: 
emacs -q -no-site-file -batch  \
 "/tmp/my_gnus.el" -f lisp-mode  \
 -eval '(indent-region (point-min) (point-max) nil)' \
  -f save-buffer

>>> OUTPUT
(No changes need to be saved)

And the file is unchanged.  See attached file for the code I ran it
against.
